Changes
- [ Community Suggestion ] - Replaced two musics that were too relaxing.
- [ Community Suggestion ] - After dodge roll, the player doesn't walk back to the last mouse click anymore.
- [ Community Suggestion ] - Reworked the AI Zella's attack.
- Big rework: Every attack now causes stagger on the enemy. Armor(yellow bar) still blocks the stagger. This will create other opportunities for the player to counterplay his foes and be more aggressive, instead of just running/rolling and wait for a window of attack.
- Big rework on how the creature's health increase for each of their level. Combined with the map balances, the difficulty incrementation should feel much more fluid now.
- We merged NG+ and NG++ into one. Now we have Regular difficulty and Insane difficulty.
- Now you have a little description of each generic synergies icon.
- [Item] Draknar Tears now gives double XP to your creature instead of giving it +1 level.
- Now you can skip cutscenes.
- Player death doesn't kill his creatures anymore.
- Scoreboard changes.
Balance
- Rebalanced the number of creatures, and their levels, that spawn on each area. Combined with the creature's health changes, the difficulty incrementation should feel much more fluid now.
- Enemy stuns now last half of the time
- Lowered Breor's health
- Icy: Lowered the time between attacks of the AI
- Frogma: Lowered the lava damage
- Frogma: health reduced from 25 to 18
- Louxar: Stomp attack collider size reduced from 8 to 7.7
- [Item] Chalice now costs 60 gold.
